Sheep’s been rather unruly lately huh!
“Come on, Sheep. I wouldn’t even bother urging you to go back if it isn’t because Evan is eager to see Nicole!”
Sheila pursed her lips in annoyance. Why doesn’t Mr. Seet give Nicole a call if he misses her? Judging from Davin’s restless tone, Sheila thought he was more like the one who couldn’t wait for her to be back.
“Fine, we’ll go back after we finish the coffee.”
“You’d better finish it as fast as you can, alright?”
“Just shut up, will you?” Sheila dissed and then hung up on him directly.
Amused by their conversation, Nicole broke into a faint smile. In her opinion, Davin and Sheila were definitely the most humorous couple on earth.
As soon as Sheila and Nicole returned to Imperial Garden, Davin immediately bombarded them with a deluge of questions.
“What did Chris say? Is he in love with Nina too? Does he want Nina to give him a hand in his career?”
Sheila shook her head in response.
With a frown, Davin pressed on, “No? What does he want then? Why isn’t he interested in a girl as talented as Nina?”
“As much as he admires Nina’s personality, he doesn’t have any romantic feelings for her.”
Davin looked dumbfounded. “I’m surprised by how virtuous a man Chris Sanders actually is!”
Nicole then relayed Chris’ plan to Evan. After a moment of consideration, Evan agreed with carrying out the plan if that was going to help Nina get back on track.
But why can’t Chris just turn Nina down directly? Why does he have to do it in such a circuitous manner and put on a show for her?
Evan decided to voice his doubt to the rest of them. Davin mulled over what his brother had said and opined, “I guess Chris is doing this to make sure Nina gave up on him for good. If he merely turned her down by telling her that he already had a girlfriend, Nina might not believe him. Without witnessing his girlfriend in person, Nina might think that she still stood a chance of becoming his girlfriend. By getting a gorgeous girl to play as his girlfriend, Nina would likely be discouraged and be forced to give up when she sees the woman.”
Sheila nodded. “Indeed, Chris did say that Nina will understand the situation as soon as she sees him with a gorgeous girl.”
“Evan, I think this plan is worth a try. Nina has had a big ego ever since she was little. After seeing that Chris is taken, I believe she will be able to move on from him eventually,” Nicole said.
Davin chimed in, “I agree, and I think we should give it a try. Nina didn’t even bother giving me a response when I knocked on her door just now. If we don’t do something to help her, I’m worried that she might be stuck in this debacle forever.”
For some reason, Evan had a feeling that there was something fishy with Chris’ decision. However, Nicole, Sheila, and Davin had all approved the plan. As there was no other better way to help Nina at the moment, it seemed like the only thing they could do was to carry out Chris’ plan.
“Alright. Go ahead and make the arrangements then. Let’s bring Nina over when everyone is ready.”
“Sure.”
Sheila was efficient in her execution. In no time, she managed to enlist the help of a girl who was both beautiful and talented to star alongside Chris. To make sure Nina would truly get the message to move on, Sheila reminded the girl to behave as intimately as she could with Chris in front of Nina.
The beauty promised to do exactly as was instructed, but she also demanded a handsome reward in return for her effort.
“Don’t worry. As long as you nail this, I’ll foot the bill for all the limited edition cosmetic products and branded clothes you’ve been eyeing!” Sheila offered.
“For the sake of your generosity, it’s a deal!”
As soon as Sheila ended the phone call with the beauty, she immediately sent Chris’ phone number to her. Before the actual event, Sheila wanted the girl to meet Chris and spend some time getting to know him. It was to help ensure that their act would look more natural and convincing.
“Well, for the sake of the reward you just promised me, I’ll go and meet that guy in a jiffy.”
After Sheila finished liaising with the beauty, the rest of them started working on a plan to ensure that Nina would show up.
They reached a consensus after some discussion – Sheila and Davin were entrusted with the task of visiting Nina’s room later. They would tell her that they understood how she felt, which was why they would bring her to meet Chris in secret. They would lure Nina to the designated place, where she would chance upon the scene that they have staged.
“Evan, just leave this to Sheila and I.”
“Yes. We’re the best candidates for the task, as it’s likely that Nina won’t feel like talking to the both of you at the moment.”
